Abstract: |
The report describes the results of an archaeological watching brief at 33 Bidston Village Road, Bidston, Wirral. The project took place in advance of the construction of an extension to the existing house. The site lies on the fringes of the historic core of the village which has produced evidence of Prehistoric, Roman and medieval settlement. The only deposits present were a humic topsoil over sandstone bedrock. Three features cut into bedrock to the rear of the house probably relate to the cottage which was erected for a toll bar keeper in the mid-19th century. The top soil contained small quantities of early 19th to early 20th century ceramics which were probably present as a result of the casual disposal of domestic debris from the cottage. No other archaeological deposits were present. |
